  • Patent number: 11914495
    Abstract: Performance of a collection of machines, arranged in a linear sequence of machines that form a linear communication orbit (LCO), is monitored. Multiple machines in the LCO receive, via the LCO, a set of rules (or various subsets of the same set of rules), each rule specifying one or a combination of conditions (e.g., a performance metric and corresponding criterion) for satisfying the rule, evaluate those rules with respect to locally occurring events and local processes, and store results of those evaluations in a local database. In response to a query sent to the machines via the LCO, each of the machines returns a report, including information identifying processes whose performance during the specified time period satisfies at least one rule in the set of one or more rules. Those reports are aggregated and used to generate a merged report reflecting performance information with respect to a set of machines.

  • Publication number: 20230380986
    Abstract: An interbody implant can comprise a cage and a porous structure. The cage can comprise an anterior segment, a medial segment, a posterior segment and a lateral segment contiguously connected to each other to define an interior space. The porous structure can be located in the interior space and can be bounded by the cage. The porous structure can comprise opposed superior and inferior surfaces exposed through the cage, an internal cavity located in an interior of the porous structure, and a plurality of ports connecting the internal cavity to the superior and inferior surfaces. A superior-inferior stiffness of the interbody implant can be defined by the porous structure. The porous structure can be compressed within a patient by movement of the spine to biologically stimulate bone growth in vertebrae adjacent the interbody implant. The implant can be configured for lateral, anterior and posterior insertion at different spine levels.

  • Publication number: 20220047392
    Abstract: Provided herein are rapid and effective local infection therapy methods, systems, and devices that significantly reduce the mortality, morbidity, and the cost of care in rare musculoskeletal infections. Continuous delivery of antibiotic therapy locally, at the infection site, reduces edema and provides antibiotic irrigation, significantly improving outcomes while reducing the need for systemic antibiotics.

  • Patent number: 10045797
    Abstract: A fusion plate for use in fusing two bones together can include directional fastener bores that restrict the angle at which the fasteners can be positioned when inserted through the fastener bores. The fusion plate can be used in conjunction with a spacer, which may include a cavity into which the fusion plate can rest. The fusion plate can be coupled to the spacer using a coupling mechanism.

  • Patent number: 9697326
    Abstract: Embodiments are presented for topology graph optimization. A design geometry is represented as a graph. Engineering objectives and constraints are associated with a graph representation of a design geometry. The graph representation of the design geometry is iteratively refined for analysis using an optimization algorithm. The graph representation of the design geometry is evaluated according to constraints and objectives associated with the desired resulting design. The optimization results can be further refined by updating objectives and constraints. The optimization results may be machined directly.
